Arg, yes - that could be as well.. since the latest syncml-obex-client might 
already send it's own capailities in advance. SyncML Spec says that the 
device then only should reply supported capabilities by the device...

Not quite sure if syncml-obex-client is already sending the (own) entire 
capabilities in advance or not.. it's up to your version of libsyncml. 
Michael Bell that recently lots of development in this area ... we need have 
to introduce finally same proper discovery function for syncml-obex-client 
tool (and OpenSync plugin). Not quite sure how hard this is to implement.

Looks interesting... could you check SYNCML_TRACE as well.. might me that the 
xml parser or assembler fails and libsyncml fails to recover from the 
parser/assmebler error...

Does libsyncml send at least another package back to the device? Is there an 
sent-N+1.xml?

This would help for sure...
